Prop Preflight

Evaluation commissions by firm

Prop firms charge their own commissions in evaluation accounts, and they differ by more than $2 per contract round trip. For a trader doing 10 E-mini round trips a day, that's over $400 a month.

All-in round trip per contract, from each firm's own pages, checked Oct 17, 2026. Take Profit Trader charges the same rate on every full-size product and the same on every micro. Apex's rate depends on the platform you trade on.

Every replay charges the firm's own commissions on each trade, so a firm with higher commissions shows a lower pass rate for the same trades. Contracts a firm doesn't price use the rate you set for your own file.
